If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit...

Last year was the first time I'd done well with the National, had 2nd, 3rd and 4th all e/w.
Big Fella Thanks seems to love it round there so I'll be backing him and a couple of others come the day.
Big trixie for me as well with Albertas Run, Peddlers Cross and Big Bucks.

1st Silver By Nature 2nd Character Building 3rd Quinz
From someone that has picked the winner two years on the trot.
Definately worth a punt E/W. I'm attending on Saturday, it's usually a great day out but its a 06:30 start followed by beers on the ferry across the Irish sea at 07:30. This year I'm hoping to avoid the 9am turbo shandys followed by champagne at 9am, which made for a hazy day last year.

I've gone for a placepot aswell
2.00 Big Bucks 2.30 Grandouet 3.05 Caroles Legacy E/W 3.40 Moncadou E/W 4.15 I'm Delilah E/W 4.40 Wishfull Thinking
It looks so easy to pick those favs to win the first races but i think the outcome will be a lot different, It can't be that easy surely.

Why people keep taking Big Bucks on is absolutely mental, landed the Walsh/Nicholls double which has given me a good old pot to play with, think that's the last we'll see of Denman though.

Arriba would have been having a blinder, if he'd bet on the choices above not in brackets...
